SAG Awards nominations: Complete list

“The Butler,” “Dallas Buyers’ Club” and “August: Osage County” did better than the experts had predicted, with Forest Whitaker reaping a bid for Best Actor over Leonardo DiCaprio (“The Wolf of Wall Street””) and Robert Redford (“All Is Lost”), who were among the many shocking snubs.

“Dallas Buyers’ Club” was expected to earn nominations for Matthew McConaughey and Jared Leto, but it also pulled off a jawdropper for Best Ensemble. Ditto for “August: Osage County,” which also snagged a surprise bid for Julia Roberts in addition to its expected nom for Meryl Streep.

There is still Oscar hope for many snubbees. In the past, the SAG Award used to be an uncanny Oscar crystal ball. The two awards usually agreed on 18 to 19 of their 20 acting contenders, but the overlap rate dropped dramatically last year after SAG merged with AFTRA. SAG only picked 14 Oscar contenders and completely overlooked eventual supporting-actor winner Christoph Waltz (“Django Unchained”). Read more about that here.
